Dashboard interface

ABSTRACT

Technologies are provided for providing a dashboard interface corresponding to one or more datacenter components for information originating from one or more proprietary applications. A selection of information corresponding to the one or more datacenter components is initially received. Upon receiving the selection, an application programming interface (API) call request is made, in real-time, for the information corresponding to the one or more datacenter components from the one or more proprietary applications. As the information corresponding to one or more datacenter components from the one or more proprietary applications is received, it is aggregated and provided within the dashboard interface.

BACKGROUND

The growing complexity of large infrastructures, such as datacenters, frequently hinders the understanding of the system behavior. While datacenters have a wide range of sizes from hundreds to thousands of components, it is common for system administrators to utilize many different management tools to monitor various aspects of the datacenter, such as individual components of a particular system, relationships between components of the particular system, as well as the overall particular system itself.

Because of the need to utilize the many different management tools, it is neither practical nor possible to access each tool necessary to collate crucial data and inform decision making. Moreover, the different management tools utilize multiple data sources, each storing different data variables, often in proprietary formats, creating bottlenecks in the workflow. In many cases, this causes delays in both proactive and reactive engagement. Dependencies on other organizations or business units to provide necessary information cause even further delays. An inability to efficiently and effectively resolve vulnerabilities, compliance issues, end of life and end of service life issues results.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The subject matter of the present invention is described with specificity herein to meet statutory requirements. However, the description itself is not intended to limit the scope of this patent. Rather, the inventors have contemplated that the claimed subject matter might also be embodied in other ways, to include different steps or combinations of steps similar to the ones described in this document, in conjunction with other present or future technologies. Moreover, although the terms “step” and/or “block” may be used herein to connote different components of methods employed, the terms should not be interpreted as implying any particular order among or between various steps herein disclosed unless and except when the order of individual steps is explicitly described.

As noted in the Background, conventional systems require the need to utilize many different management tools, making them neither practical nor possible to access each tool necessary to collate crucial data and inform decision making. Moreover, the different management tools utilize multiple data sources, each storing different data variables, often in proprietary formats, creating bottlenecks in the workflow. In many cases, this causes delays in both proactive and reactive engagement. Dependencies on other organizations or business units to provide necessary information cause even further delays. An inability to efficiently and effectively resolve vulnerabilities, compliance issues, end of life and end of service life issues results.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to providing a dashboard interface of aggregated information corresponding to one or more datacenter components originating from one or more proprietary applications. To do so, a selection of information corresponding to one or more datacenter components is initially received. The information may comprise one or more of: asset information, storage information, network information, virtualization information, systems information, capacity planning information, and change and incident management information. Upon receiving the selection, an application programming interface (API) call request is made, in real-time, for the information corresponding to the one or more datacenter components from the one or more proprietary applications. As the information corresponding to one or more datacenter components from the one or more proprietary applications is received, it is aggregated and provided within the dashboard interface. In this way, a single pane of glass (i.e., the dashboard interface) can provide a complete datacenter overview for items such as storage capacity, fabric capacity, compute capacity, network port capacity, data trends, infrastructure vulnerabilities, firmware version, patching compliance, end of life and end of service life status, host details, tier reports, utilization status, backup status, and inventory overview, each of which normally includes navigating one or more proprietary applications to provide similar information. Embodiments of the present invention obviate the need to navigate multiple applications and instead provide the information within a single interface.

In embodiments, each of the one or more proprietary applications are provided by different entities and store data in different formats. The API call that requests the information may comprise translating the selection of information into proprietary business logic corresponding to a proprietary application of the one or more proprietary applications. As the information is aggregated, the received information may be translated back into business logic corresponding to the dashboard interface.

In some embodiments, a change calendar is provided within the dashboard interface. The change calendar comprises one or more links to a proprietary application of the one or more proprietary applications for additional information. In some embodiments a unified central repository is provided within the dashboard interface. The unified central repository may provide capacity information across all infrastructure verticals for the one or more datacenter components. Additionally or alternatively, the unified central repository may provide a detailed inventory for the one or more datacenter components. Additionally or alternatively, the unified central repository may provide environment-wise and vendor-wise data for the one or more datacenter components.

In some embodiments, the unified central repository enables tracking of vendor contracts for the one or more datacenter components. End of life and end of service life devices may be identified for the one or more datacenter components. Clients affected by the devices may be identified. Upgrade activity for the devices of the one or more datacenter components may be automatically scheduled based on downtime preferences of the identified clients.

In some embodiments, aggregating the information comprises translating the received information into business logic corresponding to the dashboard interface.

The aggregated information corresponding to one or more datacenter components from the one or more proprietary applications is provided, within the dashboard interface, at step 3450. In some embodiments, a change calendar that comprises one or more links to a proprietary application of the one or more proprietary applications for additional information is provided within the dashboard interface. In some embodiments, a unified central repository that provides capacity information across all infrastructure verticals for the one or more datacenter components is provided within the dashboard interface. In some embodiments, a unified central repository that provides a detailed inventory for the one or more datacenter components is provided within the dashboard interface. The unified central repository may provide environment-wise and vendor-wise data for the one or more datacenter components.

Additionally or alternatively, the unified central repository, enables tracking of vendor contracts for the one or more datacenter components. For example, end of life and end of service life devices of the one or more datacenter components may be identified. Clients affected by the end of life and end of service life devices of the one or more datacenter components may be identified. Upgrade activity for the end of life and end of service life devices of the one or more datacenter components may be automatically scheduled based on downtime preferences of the identified clients.
